The past few days have consisted of tension, work, heat, frustration, and a little bit of good. My dad barges in my room Friday morning at 8:45 (being my third or fourth hour of sleep) notifying me that an appraiser is coming at 2pm. This was madness and my mom and I RAILED him for scheduling it like that and not telling us and not doing anything up until this point. We got him to call back and at least reschedule till Monday morning. I swear that man has no sense. But we get working on the inside of the house cleaning while he goes outside to weed and stuff. Then his friend Mikey comes into the picture. Mikeys work is restoring houses so he walks in with all of his opinion about painting, roofing, tile. So much crap that CANT BE DONE before monday. But they start painting outside anyway. And that is a lot of paint. Before I know it Ive been drafted and Im out in the sun for hours and hours helping while Mikey is the type of person who usually just re-does whatever someone else does anyway. I just wanted to slap him and go inside. So there we are, all weekend, painting outside and it still isnt done. Wanna know what else isnt done?....EVERTHING. I finally cleaned my room and all of the boxes and thats wonderful but damn. There is so much more. The back bedroom/storage room, kitchen, bathroom. My mom perfected their bedroom and the living room since she was lucky enough to be inside. What we should have done first was replace this carpet. Its THE worst part about the house and the most noticeable. But nobody listens to me.
So with this and everyone pissing me off, and my dad finding out he has Hepatitis C, and work only giving me two shifts this week, and etc etc etc its been a sucky few days. Luckily I was able to get away and be with Daniel for a few hours last night. That was nice.
I am currently procrastinating from all of the cleaning I need to do. Im just glad it will be inside. Away from that wretched heat. Im doing it all today though because tomorrow I just dont plan on being here. I dont care where I am. I actually think Im going to watch the Godfather trilogy with Daniel since it is his day off too and that is something he has been wanting to do. But I need to get out of the house.
I had some incredible chinese food last night. Theres another good thing. And it was delivery. Hello joy. There is more in the fridge.....hmm
